| Many people are expected to stay at home again this year as
UK holidays grow ever more popular. With worries about the country going into recession yet again, plus the awful foreign exchange rates that never seem to improve, scores of families and couples are choosing to holiday in the British Isles rather than jet off to sunnier shores. The following guide gives you some of the very best destinations for short breaks and holidays in the UK: 1) Cornwall The remote south-west county of Cornwall attracts large numbers of visitors a year due to its scenic coastline. With 140 beaches to choose from, you're never too far away from a lazy day by the sea. For something different, visit the Eden Projects, where you can see many rare types of plant in a large indoor wildlife exhibition. 2) Wales Famed for its caravan parks, Wales has something for everyone. Affordable beach resorts such as Rhyl or Prestatyn can help with sticking to a budget, while the slightly more scenic west Wales coastline is a great setting for lovers of the more relaxing break. For shops, restaurants and bars, Cardiff is a must, while the mountainous Snowdonia offers a paradise to walkers and explorers. 3) Dorset Dorset is located in the central south of the English coast, making it an ideal location to explore a wider area than some other holiday destinations. The popular seaside town of Bournemouth provides beach lovers with seven miles of golden sands, while an attraction such as Monkey World is a day of fun for all the family. 4) Scotland Scotland offers some of the most dramatic landscape in the whole of the UK. Whether you are looking to stay in a hotel, B&B, or fancy staying in one of the many caravan sites available, there's no doubt that Scotland has plenty to keep the UK holidaymaker occupied. For example, the country is the home of golf and a number of courses are available for keen players, or for beginners to try their luck. 5) Norfolk The east of England has a very different feel to it, in the form of flat countryside near long sandy beaches. The Norfolk Broads is one of the best places to see rare birds and other wildlife. Once you've explored the natural side of the country, try visiting Norwich, a city full of deep culture and fascinating history. |
